HOTEL REMISENS PALACE 4*, Opatija The hotel is located only 1 minute on foot from the seafront. One of the most renowned hotels in Opatija, the Remisens Premium Grand Hotel Palace is set in a recently renovated Secession building, beautifully located along the main street facing the sea. In summer evenings you can enjoy themed dinners and musical events on the large hotel’s terrace. The rooms are decorated in pastel colours and are equipped with a flat-screen cable TV, AC, Wi-Fi… The hotel features a spa, wellness centre, indoor pool with heated seawater, a peaceful relaxation area, Finnish and Turkish saunas… A variety of massages and beauty treatments are available. The elegant, air- conditioned restaurant serves a buffet breakfast. The nearest pebble beach is only a 10-minute walk from the hotel. OPATIJA Opatija was the one of the first towns to develop tourism in Croatia and on the Adriatic Sea. Austrian secession architecture is the predominant building style, a reminder of the mid-19th century when the main visitors were the Central European upper class and political elite. Opatija still today remains a synonym for a stylish travel destination. We suggest a stroll on the Lungomare, a seaside promenade (the longest in Croatia with 12 km) connecting the fishing towns of Volosko and Lovran.

  • Identity and Language Shift Among Vlashki/Zheyanski Speakers in Croatia1

Vlashki/Zheyanski is a severely endangered Eastern Romance language known in the linguistic literature as Istro-Romanian. In order to study the domains and frequency of use of the language and equally to examine speaker attitudes about language and iden- tity, we administered a questionnaire to speakers in both locations. Our sample included responses from individuals in four age groups. Our discussion here focuses on 16 men and women from the two older groups, 51–70 and 71-and- older. In Žejane, speakers saw knowledge of the language and family lineage as defining components of being a “real” member of the community. The name for the language, Zheyanski, comes from the village name. Hence, someone who speaks the language asserts that village belonging and village affiliation are at the core of speakers’ identity. In terms of national identification, whether Croatian, Italian, and/or Istrian, Zheyanski speakers by and large showed little enthusiasm for any of the three choices.

Mihovila, Rudina – budućnost povijesnoga graditeljstva Boris Vučić Šneperger UDK: 726.7(497.5Rudina) Izvorni znanstveni članak Rukopis prihvaćen za tisak: 13.9.2013. SAMOSTAN SV. Mihovila, Rudina – budućnost povijesnoga graditeljstva istraživanje i proučavanje samostanskih ostataka s motrišta zaštite graditeljske baštine sažetak U promišljanju budućnosti nekadašnjega samostanskog kompleksa sv. Mi- haela na Rudini, danas izuzetno važnog lokaliteta za hrvatsku kulturu, nai- lazimo na niz nedosljednosti u istraživanju koje su se godinama ponavljale. Istraživanja ili nije bilo ili su bila ograničena i, što je najvažnije, jako zakašnjela. Nužna je temeljita i interdisciplinarna analiza kako bi se što je kvalitetnije moguće odradilo daljnje istraživanje i, u konačnici, prezentacija. Integralni proces obrade graditeljske baštine koji se kao kompletiran sustav istražnih radova s različitih aspekata treba ovdje primijeniti jest upravo ono o čemu govore i arheolozi, i konzervatori, i povjesničari, i povjesničari umjetno- sti. Takvi radovi obuhvaćaju istraživanja, dokumentiranja i valorizaciju s gledi- šta svih pojedinačnih struka, da bi se u konačnici iznjedrile programske smjer- nice za rekonstrukciju, konzervaciju i prezentaciju samostanskoga kompleksa i okoliša. U radu je rekonstruiran samostanski kompleks na temelju dostupne građe te je analiziran tlocrt, pri čemu se pokazuje da samostan nije nastao slu- čajnom gradnjom već pomnim arhitektonskim i umjetničkim djelovanjem. S gledišta arhitekture, točnije zaštite graditeljske baštine, daje se niz prijed- loga koje bi bilo dobro uključiti u daljnje istraživačke procese. Ključne riječi: Rudina; samostan sv. Mihovila arkanđela; romanika; roma- nička arhitektura; Požega. Nakon iznimno vrijednog članka Anđele Horvat1 iz 1962.
